In the interest of full disclosure I did have some Hipshot ultralights on for a bit but the Zon tuners operate better and aren't that heavy anyway.
The good:
This bass plays effortlessly. The easiest playing bass I've ever had. Balances perfectly and sounds killer. Great even sound that punches through. Sounds natural unlike some other composite necked basses I've played.
There is truly something special about this bass.
The not so good:
Two small dings in the back of the body. Got one in a picture the other one is smaller and I couldn't get it to show up in the pic. Small chip in the top of the headstock. Some spots in the top of the finish that need to be buffed out. They didn't bother me and you rarely see them anyway so I left it as is. There is some wear on the pickups. Not terrible but it's there.
The embarrassing:
The spring on the E string does not match. It's silver the rest are black. Some idiot lost it while cleaning under the saddle. One guess who the idiot was.... It's near my workbench/desk somewhere. When I find it I'll send it to you. The replacement spring is the same length as the others. Diameter is slightly larger (maybe it's metric???)
Comes with the Zon gig bag and will be expertly packed.
Yours for $1975 Conus.
Reduced to $1850 OBO. Paypal is great a local deal would be wonderful. Buying this bass new would cost you over $4k.
Trades: Mainly looking for a four string.
This bass will make you a better person.
Here are some pics. Feel free to PM me if you'd like to see something more specific.
Heres the dufus who lost the spring. Stare in amazement at how happy I am.
